Re: Opening Wikipedia, Forum Browser, etc.

 

Niklas, do you will try yo implement that feature in your app? What about
translations in Forum Browser? I've made one in polish language, could you
implement it?

developed to work in that way) or browser app (that don't allow/can't do
that)? Where should I report that bug? In example new version of
https://uappexplorer.com/app/wikipedia.mattirn supports for now opening
wiki article from NearBy scope, but not from browser.

> Hi Krzysztof, As pointed out by Niklas, apps can register as handlers for
custom URL schemes. When a link is clicked in the browser which it doesn’t
know how to handle, it will be delegated to the URL dispatcher which will
select the corresponding app for handling it, if any. That works for custom
URL schemes, not for regular http:// or https:// URLs. Those will always
open in the browser. Note that URL dispatcher knows how to handle intent://
URLs, and apps can register as handlers for those by specifying the android
package name as domain-suffix, e.g.: { "protocol": "intent",
"domain-suffix": "com.google.android.apps.maps" } Documentation on URL
dispatcher available here:

I hope this helps, Olivier
